I’d guess it’s because Apple customers also use Google products.


That's right, the Venn diagram of Google users includes almost all Android users, a big chunk of Apple users, and even more too. In general I would assume there are at least 2x more Google users than Apple users, and even bigger disparity if you look worldwide.

In the US I believe Android/iOS is 50/50, but worldwide it's close to 80/20.


That, and Google's products are all data mines, so the Google stuff is probably much juicier.


Oh no, the terrorists use iPhones so now we can only get access to their location, iMessages, photos, browsing history, credit cards and all purchases made through Apple Pay. Might as well not bother sending a request at all.
